To a great degree it was the case historically, and is currently, and would be more the case currently if it wasn't for government efforts (which crowd out some private efforts) and high government taxes (which reduce private resources for charity, and also create an impression in people that they already gave). So you are saying the poor were better off, say, 100 years ago? Before government programs, and out of the goodness of people's hearts? And before charities were "crowded out" by taxes? Seriously Tim, I know you have a good imagination and will argue with anything you perceive to be coming from "a liberal", but come on.
